God is a Real Jerk

God? He's my favourite fictional character
-Homer Simpson


The great thing about religion is that no part of it has to make any sense. Being a religious “thinker” or leader, is about the only job where that is true. If you design bridges, and you do it wrong, the bridges will collapse and you’ll never get another bridge gig, will you?

If you are a chef and people die after eating your food, you’re not going to be a chef very long.

Not so for fundamentalists down south – a unique form of asshole.

The Earth is as old as the literal reading of the bible says so men and dinosaurs lived at the same time. Bill Hicks had a good point: Why aren’t there dinosaurs in The Bible?????

Did you folks know just how much of an asshole their god is?

Ok, here goes: God creates men and women. He creates 10-15% of them gay, BUT demands that they pretend to be heterosexual. He prefers that they marry and have children and live a total lie (I guess bearing false witness against thyself is ok). If they do not do this, but live as gays and have a parade, God destroys New Orleans. You see. God is not only a jerk, he sucks at geography: San Francisco would have been a more logical place to send the Hurricane.

Then again, if God created these fundamentalists in his own image, it makes sense that he’d be an asshole.
